Long lines, endless waiting, and the cramping hands are no more. Next fall, online registration will be offered.

Principal Ron Vinduska said, “Starting July 1, parents and/or students will be able to pay fees and fill out paperwork like demographics and health history. Also payments for parking permits and food services will be available.”

The online registration is a change from every year’s lines.

“This change came from the desire to make registration easier for everyone. Also it is less time consuming,” Mr. Vinduska said. 

However, changes bring about consequences.

Mrs. Dawna Edmonds said, “The counselor’s schedule will be slightly changed. We will have more days in June in order to make changes for students.”

Even with the online registration, students are able to make changes to their schedule.

“Starting in June, students will be able to contact the counselors to change their schedule. Each week will be designated for a specific grade starting with seniors. Students can walk in or email the counselors to change their schedule,” Mrs. Edmonds said.

After schedule changes, online registration is the next step. The online registration website will be designed specifically for this purpose and will be easy to follow.

Mrs. Edmonds said, “In a way, you can compare it to Amazon.com. I believe there will be something much like a shopping cart that you fill up with your class fees and other payments.”

With the introduction of the online registration, this will improve the registration process.

“With the online registration, the district will not have to pay as many teachers to run the registration lines in August. Secondly, those who come to the school to register will notice the lines will be smaller,” Mr. Vinduska said.

For those who cannot register online, the school will be open in the beginning of August for parents to register.
